Msgbox when any one of a number of subtotals has been exceeded

[Ironman]

Hi

A2:A243 (which is added to regularly) contains values and subtotals for each year.

The subtotals for each year are identified in blue and by a formula in Column B.

I need a message box to appear when the value in cell A245 exceeds a subtotal.

If a trigger cell is needed, then C245 can be used (so I can easily see it), although this will need to change when a new entry is added.

Many thanks!

But the Iron Man sheet you posted isn't using those codes !
However, just to be clear, we are still working on columns "C" & "F" as per Post #2 aren't we ??

 

[Ironman]

Ahh OK, sorry about that.

Yes, that hasn't changed...

 

[Michael M]

Here's a bit of a pointer.
If you don't have you workbook in full screen, you can press and hold the windows button on your keyboard (usually down next to the spacebar) an at the same time press your right arrow.
This will put your code next to your workbook so you can see what is happening on the worksheetas you step through the code. you can adjust the window sizes to suit.

 

[Michael M]

It should look like this

 

[Ironman]

Thanks for that Michael.

I've just done exactly as you've suggested with the sheet and code sheet side by side. I've gone down each of the rows and amended A241 value to 1 and back to 24 for each row and keyed F8.

All I'm seeing is the row highlighted in yellow each time. I don't know what I'm supposed to be identifying (remember it's way past my bedtime )?

 

[Michael M]

So, when you change a cell the code line highlights correct ??
Now while the code window is the active window, press F8....not "F" and 8....but the F8 button on the top of the keyboard. the yellow line should move down 1 line, and whatever action was on the previous line of code should have ben run. In the case of our data, if you hover the mouse over the "n=", it should say n=3, press F8 again and the "n=" line is executed, and if you hver over the "X=", it should say "x=8", which by my reckoning are both correct.
You can step through the entire code this way if you want to, but usually when we knw the results are correct, we simply remove the brown dot ( by clicking on it) and press F5 for the code to complete it's run !!

 

[Ironman]

Morning Michael!

Yes and yes, I get the row highlighting, but when I "hover the mouse over the n=" with the window focused on the code, I don't see anything?

 

[Michael M]

Which row do you have highlighted
Is it after the n= row??

 

[Ironman]

Which row do you have highlighted
Is it after the n= row??

I highlighted them all, one by one.

 

[Ironman]

F8...
